    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    The problem for me is that I don't believe you prove what you allege from the Word of God. The two anointed ones IMO are the two witnesses. They are two olive trees, symbolizing the Church of Old Covenant made manifest through the Law and Prophets that foretell of the Messiah who was to come...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    How do you prove the timing leads to the ministry of John the Baptist, since the prophesy says nothing at all about him? Ezra 1:2-3 (KJV) Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him an house at...

    Proof of Rapture before Tribulation

    Yea, it seems the foolish believed they could be saved by association, as those in the judgment believing their good deeds would be enough to save them. These fools seemed to believe they too could have eternal life just by being among Christians.

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    Your timing doesn't work because you begin counting from Artaxerxes, but the decree began with Cyrus. But the decrees given by the three was not new decrees but the same decree that was issued and re-issued. Here are the dates for when the three Kings decreed and re-issued: BC 538 Cyrus...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    We all know the right way to understand the passion week was fulfilled in seven days. It's historical fact! But there is more to the prophecy that you don't seem to understand. The timing of Daniel's prophecy PROVES Christ is Messiah the Prince promised to come. And He did come at exactly at the...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    I don't know if you've been following all the discussions. I'm referring you back what I believe is the proper way to understand Dan 9 prophesy. "But there is a reason for the separation of the final seven weeks of years. It took a little research and much thinking for me to figure out why...

    The only way Amil can remotely be Biblical is if NOSAS isn't Biblical.

    David, it is not my intention to try to convince anyone of any particular doctrine. Why would I be so foolish to try to convince anyone since I am not the Holy Spirit. My purpose for posting in these forums is to prove truths from the Scriptures. I did NOT bring my understanding of...

    The only way Amil can remotely be Biblical is if NOSAS isn't Biblical.

    The blessed and holy are NOT blessed and holy because they are first to be physically resurrected. They are blessed and holy because in life before they died (a/the thousand symbolic years) they had part in the first resurrection, that is they became partakers in the resurrection life of Christ...

    The only way Amil can remotely be Biblical is if NOSAS isn't Biblical.

    We take part in the first resurrection during our life times. Every time someone has been born again through the Spirit sent from Christ in us, we have part in the first resurrection. How? By having part in the resurrection life of Christ, who is the first resurrection of the dead! Nowhere...

    Yes, two bodily resurrections. The first resurrection to life from physical death is the resurrection of Christ. Then there shall be the bodily resurrection of all who are in the graves in an hour that is coming, when the last trumpet sounds and time given this earth whereby man must be saved...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    The problem I have with this way of understanding is that it ignores much of Daniel's prophesy. Daniel's prophesy did not begin when John the Baptist and Christ were together on the earth for seven years. His prophesy must be understood from "the going forth of the commandment to restore and...

    The only way Amil can remotely be Biblical is if NOSAS isn't Biblical.

    You will never hear me say that man is NOT eternally secure in Christ when they have been born again!!! Because that is NOT biblical! Once again you show you have no understanding of what it is to have ETERNAL life. When we have been born again through the Spirit of Christ, the life...

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    It's become clear that you lack understanding of much biblical doctrine! Replying to you is an exercise in futility!

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    Why does that matter? Abraham was looking for an eternal home, whose builder and maker is God. His eyes and heart were set on heaven and not on this earth destined to destruction.

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    Are you kidding! You have no problem giving people false hope??? What's the matter with you? Why turn to the Lord for everlasting life before He comes again, because there will still be another ONE thousand years for you to turn to Him later. What a lie from the depths of hell!

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    The promise of land was physically fulfilled when Joshua divided the land of Cannan between the physical descendants of Abraham. The prophesy of Ezekiel is being spiritually fulfilled since Christ came to earth a man. You might know this if you ever bothered to use the New Testament to prove...

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    If that's how you read this passage, you don't have very good understanding of Biblical tenses! But believing in Premillennialism it is no wonder, since your doctrine cannot be read FROM the Scriptures, but must be read INTO the Scriptures. That and a lot of guessing is how Premillennialism...

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    Abraham had no interest in returning to the land of Canaan. If he had been he could have returned. But Abraham was looking for fulfillment of the promise, everlasting life, not on this earth but in the Kingdom of God in heaven. Read Hebrews 11 if you doubt what I am telling you.

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    What is this "beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God" if not faithfulness to the Gospel? They were faithful unto death! But even after being martyred for their faith, John sees them as souls alive in heaven, without physical form. How can there be souls in heaven after...

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    You're confusing the saints of vs 4 with the saints in vs 6. John has written the martyred saints of vs 4 "have lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." If they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years before they were martyred, and they did, what "a thousand years" will those...
